New Bengali cyberbullying corpus incorporates conversational context

Researchers have developed BenCoDiC, a new corpus designed to address the limitations of existing Bengali cyberbullying datasets. This large-scale resource comprises over 50,000 instances collected from Bengali political news discourse on YouTube, preserving conversational context like replies and user interactions. The corpus features a nine-dimensional schema for detailed analysis and was annotated through a rigorous two-tier human process, achieving high inter-annotator agreement. Initial experiments using transformer models indicate that incorporating conversational context improves cyberbullying detection accuracy. AI

IMPACT This corpus could enable more nuanced AI-driven detection of cyberbullying in Bengali political discourse.
